Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Jaguars fans and fans across the country. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartsurvey.co.uk\/s\/EFIUQ7\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up here<\/a> to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Jaguars fans \u2014 should Jacksonville bring back Devin Lloyd and\/or Travis Etienne?<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The former first-round picks lived up to the hype, no debate. We all have eyes. These are fantastic players who deserve the paydays they\u2019re about to land.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotrac.com\/nfl\/free-agents\/available\/_\/year\/2026\/team\/jax\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Spotrac<\/a>, Lloyd has a market value of $20.1 million per year. That\u2019d put him right between Fred Warner ($21 mil) and Roquan Smith ($20 mil) for the league\u2019s highest-paid off-ball linebackers in terms of annual earnings. Ouch!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Etienne\u2019s projected market value of $6.8 million per year would be much easier to swallow. That\u2019d be less than Tony Pollard ($7.25 mil), D\u2019Andre Swift ($8 mil), and notably, the recently re-signed Javonte Williams ($8 mil). Dallas brought back Williams on a three-year, $24 million contract, which is probably the ballpark of what Etienne will land. That deal did no favors for Etienne\u2019s camp, but on the other hand, New York\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/jets-to-use-tag-on-breece-hall-if-no-long-term-deal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">imprisonment of Breece Hall<\/a> could lead to a pretty hot market for Etienne and Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III next month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">As Henry recently covered in depth <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigcatcountry.com\/jacksonville-jaguars-free-agency\/82668\/should-jags-sign-nfl-linebacker-devin-lloyd\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, Jacksonville\u2019s first question this offseason is where to bring back Lloyd.
